# Using MACVTAP to Bridge onto Host Network
Cloud Hypervisor supports using a MACVTAP device which is derived from a MACVLAN. Full details of configuring MACVLAN or MACVTAP is out of scope of this document. However the example below indicates how to bridge the guest directly onto the network the host is on. Due to the lack of hairpin mode it not usually possible to reach the guest directly from the host.

As the guest is now connected to the same L2 network as the host you can obtain an IP address based on your host network (potentially including via DHCP)
